The Journey Update

We have an action packed schedule for you in the next two weeks—blessings, Ben Stein, dodge ball, and being the difference!

$7 BLESSING - In case you missed FUEL on the 4th, we handed out $7 to everyone there, along with a challenge to meet a need or be a blessing to someone with that money and come back on April 25 to tell us how you used it. If you weren’t there, I would challenge you to take $7 of you own and think about how you can use it for others. Be creative. You may want to buy something that you can sell for more money. You could buy a card or a gift for someone who needs encouragement. You could buy lunch for someone on the street. You could donate to a ministry or missions organization. Or you could give an offering to Centerpoint Church. Remember, God blesses us with all we have in the first place. We’re just using a little bit of it to bless others in Him name.

GET EXPELLED WITH BEN STEIN – One of my professors got to see a prescreening of the documentary-style movie, “Expelled,” and said it was funny. That may be true, but there’s a lot more to it than that. In the movie, Ben Stein goes on a quest to find out why professors and scientists are being ridiculed, denied tenure and even fired for exploring evidence that there might be design in nature. Join us at the movies this Friday after Fuel (4/18) as we watch this entertaining expose of evolution. Bring money for your movie ticket.

REIGNING CHAMPIONS – The ATTIC (All The Truth In Christ), another youth and young adult ministry in Riverside, is hosting their 2nd Dodgeball Tournament this Saturday evening (4/19). Last time our team won the championship. This time we’re going to defend our title! If you want to join our team, email Paul (paul@towardtruth.com) immediately. We will meet at Centerpoint to carpool at 7pm.

TUNDE & FRIENDS AT FUEL – Next Friday, April 25, at Fuel, we will have special guests, Tunde and Titi, sharing about their plans for ministry in Nigeria this summer and how we can help. Tunde and Friends Ministries mission and outreach to Nigeria includes free medical screening, disability awareness in churches and communities, providing wheelchairs, building ramps to make churches wheelchair accessible, introducing Disabled Students Services programs to the colleges and universities, and "True Love Waits" services for local churches. You will not want to miss this great time of fellowship and partnership. Fuel starts at 7pm in the Student Ministries Building; or come early for dinner at 6pm.
